The second race this weekend, which was to take place on saturday afternoon, ended up being canceled after the Supersport event. In this race, the riders had to overcome the much water on the circuit and this turned out to be part of the justification for the cancellation of the WSBK race.

Speaking to the official website of the championship, Gregorio Lavilla said that the conditions of the track got worse after the WSSP race. In that sense, and after a meeting with riders and not only, the decision to cancel has become the most reasonable of all options.

‘After the Supersport race we checked the track and saw conditions worsen. We decided to have a quick brief meeting with the security commission. The circumstances and track haven’t improved – they’ve gotten worse since the WSSP race – and we’ve looked into the whole situation. At the end we heard what the riders had to say and they all agreed on the sport; agreed that it would be best not to do the race. It was a decision taken together’, the Sports Director of the championship said to worldsbk.com.
